<p>Hi -
I've been looking into taking the SAT exam this January, and am wondering if I'm too late. The official SAT registration deadline isn't until December 26th, which got me thinking I had loads of time. I've contacted my local test centres, but they're very slow in responding. Also, does anyone know what the odds are like for "standby" places?</p>
<p>thanks,
rman</p>
<p>Don't contact the local test centres, that's gonna take long long.</p>
<p>Go onto the Collegeboard website where you can sign up online (account registration required)</p>
<p>Testing standby depends on the test centre. My two friends who wanted to test standby at a test centre in Singapore were successful, but again, it depends on the test centre's vacancies. Since January's a popular last-minute test date, I wouldn't risk testing standby and would try my best to register online.</p>
<p>Absolutely. Register online. If you have trouble, then the Fulbright Foundations Educational Advising Service could probably let you know which testing centres tended to have space.</p>
